Department of Energy cleanup sites across the country depend on on-site disposal facilities to handle contaminated waste and debris from demolished buildings and soil remediation. At one site--Oak Ridge, where a massive gaseous diffusion complex was completely demolished for the first time ever--more disposal capacity is needed to finish cleanup work at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Y-12 Nuclear Security Complex. In this week's episode, the Gone Fission Nuclear Report talks with Roger Petrie, DOE Regulatory Affairs Specialist, about what's involved in siting a second on-site disposal facility and the outlook for this vital resource being available when needed. Plus, see how one college nuclear engineering major has made it big on the national stage.
